The World
In Australia, door-knockers are battling misinformation
A proposal to change the nation9s constitution to give Indigenous people a 8Voice to Parliament9 was meant to sail through. Now, it looks destined to fail.
BY M ICHAEL E . M ILLER

SYDNEY 4 The man in the <Yes=

at the Port of Darwin. But as
Thomas Mayo canvassed the Syd-
ney suburb of Mount Druitt, he
was careful to knock gently on
each door and speak calmly about
the cause to which he9d devoted
the past six years: the cause of
changing Australia9s constitution
to recognize Indigenous people
like him, and to give them a
<Voice,= or advisory body, to Par-

<G9day, mate, sorry to inter-

the referendum that is coming
up,= Mayo said at the first door
that opened. <Have you made a
decision about your vote yet?=
The resident, a South Asian
immigrant, happily said he9d be
voting yes. Mayo pumped his fist
and handed the man an informa-
tion sheet.
At the next door, however, a

closed the door in his face. It
wasn9t a new experience for
Mayo, who has been targeted
with conspiracy theories and rac-
ist caricatures and even threats of
violence.
The Oct. 14 referendum was
supposed to be straightforward.
It was the first thing the center-
left prime minister, Anthony Al-
banese, committed to on election

showed around two-thirds of

Q&a

Enji blurs the

line between
worldly and
otherworldly
BY C HRIS R ICHARDS

whenever people from disparate ge-

ographies come together to make new
music, passive listeners tend to treat the
results like mosaics or club sandwiches
4 assemblages made to dazzle and
nourish us with the vague suggestion of
a universal language that might even-
tually help our idiot species transcend
its fractiousness. enji9s music feels way
deeper than that. no tiles, no tiers, no
pseudo-kumbaya. she9s a Mongolian
jazz singer recording bossa nova-hued
ballads in Germany, but instead of
coming together like global bric-a-brac,
her songs mix like satin interior paint 4
vivid and smooth.
Her gorgeous third album, <Ulaan,= is
extraordinary, a singular result of
unique circumstances, but also modest,
because isn9t everything that happens in
this life a singular result of unique
circumstances? Born enkhjargal
erkhembayar in the Mongolian capital
of Ulaanbaatar, enji spent her child-
hood living in a yurt, raised by working
parents who loved to sing. Fascinated
with traditional folk melodies, she grew
up to become a music teacher, until a
jazz outreach program organized by the
Goethe-institut suddenly bent her path
toward a recording career in Munich.
enji9s 2017 debut, <Mongolian song,=
featured jazz arrangements of tradition-
al Mongolian music (plus some extra
splash from legendary drummer Billy
Hart), while her 2021 album, <Ursgal,=
found the singer penning her own
interior ballads under the influence of
jazz standards. now, with <Ulaan,= enji
has expanded her band (guitarist Paul
Brändle, bassist Munguntovch Tsolmon-
bayar) to include two Brazilian players
(drummer Mariá Portugal, clarinetist
Joana Queiroz), and together, they seem
to have found a place for the singer9s
voice that didn9t previously exist.
it barely exists, though. The instru-
mentation on <Ulaan= feels so delicate,
it9s often on the precipice of vanishing.
keep your ears focused and you9ll hear
arrangements as practical as enji9s sing-
ing, which even at its lullaby-softest,
remains stealthily rhythmic and deeply

to explore what the color system says about the evolution of the

When Lego started manufacturing bricks, it started small, colorwise. Jared Hinton, a Los Angeles-based site administrator for Rebrick-

All the brick colors Lego has used since 1958

Lego bricks have appeared in nearly 200 different colors since 1958, including standard, transparent and glitter varieties.
At first, colors were limited. <Very few colors, very simple color system,= Signe Weise, a coporate historian at Lego, said.

New brick colors introduced between 1978 and 1989 New brick colors introduced between 1990 and 1999

Following the 1978 introduction of Lego themes and the minifigures as we know them today, In the 1990s, the color palette got a new addition: pink. <We introduced a couple of themes
the palette began to ramp up. Colors were added between 1978 and 1989, but the total targeted to girls,= Weise said. <So that meant the introduction of more pastel-like colors,

Lego9s product portfolio was expanding, which strained the company9s finances, Weise said. The palette has grown slightly since 2007 to about 70 colors in 2022.
The number of colors in use tripled from 1990 to 2000, and the palette peaked in 2004 with
more than 110 colors. To steady the company, Lego reduced the number of bricks as well as
the size of the color palette 4 down to about 60 in 2007. <We went from 14,000 different
types of [bricks] to around 3,500,= Weise said.

NFL week 5

Purdy continues to thrive as San Francisco throttles Dallas

49ers 42,
Cowboys 10
BY J OSH D UBOW

SaNTa ClaRa, Calif. 4 Brock

Purdy threw three of his four
touchdown passes to George Kit-
tle, and the San Francisco 49ers
extended their dominance over
the Dallas Cowboys with a 42-10
victory Sunday night.
The 49ers (5-0) knocked the
Cowboys out of the playoffs in
tight games the past two seasons,
adding intrigue to this early sea-
son matchup between perceived
contenders.
The rematch wasn9t even close.
The 49ers led 14-0 before the
Cowboys got their initial first
down of the night and were never
really threatened on the way to
matching a franchise record with
their 15th straight regular season
win and earning their fifth 5-0
start.
Purdy calmly picked apart the
league9s stingiest defense to im-
prove to 10-0 as a starter in the
NFL, and San Francisco9s defense
made life difficult on Dak Prescott
all night.
<The defense does their job, so it
makes life easy for me,= Purdy said.
Prescott was sacked three times
and heaved an interception into
double coverage after Dallas fell
behind 28-10 in the third quarter.
He threw two more interceptions
in the fourth quarter, with his only
highlight coming on a 26-yard
touchdown pass to KaVontae
Turpin in the second quarter.
<It was such a great night for the
whole defense, the whole team,=
said linebacker Fred Warner, who
had a sack, an interception and a
forced fumble. <It was so fun out
here today.=
It was Dallas9s most lopsided
defeat since a 49-17 loss to New
Orleans in 2013.
Purdy again was nearly mistake
free. A week after throwing only
one incomplete pass in a win over tHearon W. Henderson/getty Images

Arizona, he repeatedly found Brock Purdy threw four touchdown passes and made easy work of the Cowboys9 defense Sunday. The 49ers are 10-0 in the regular season with Purdy as the quarterback.
